    Here is my mysterious electrical problem piece. You can call her MEPP.

    (919): so I was just driving high and I stopped to let a pinecone cross the road because I thought it was a hedgehog.

    Just ordered 2 more front shocks, idler arm, plugs and wires (NGK). Hopefully I can get it all installed next week sometime and get it re-aligned. This car is super fun to drive, but I'm thinking of building a 2nd engine for it. More of a bastard mix b/w 12a and 13b parts and a nice carb setup. It would be ported of course. I'll keep you guys updated if end up starting an engine build. The car should be in paint by the end of January, so new pics will come w/in a few weeks!

    I finally got off my ass and took some new pics of mine '80s sports car goodness.

    Behold the dirtiest 1984 Porsche 944, evah!









    I've owned this the longest and driven it the least. Of the 7 years or so that I've had it it's only really run for about as many months. I bought the car to replace a totaled 1982 BMW 320is. After DDing the 944 for 6 months or so the head gasket blew. Then she sat. I went back and forth about rebuilding the engine, just replacing the head gasket or doing a performance rebuild. I finally decided to get her running again and did the head gasket job. From sitting the seals were in pretty rough shape, so enter another '84 parts car. Swapped engines, and the parts car engine was strong.

    Took the car to Roebling Road for a NASA-SE track weekend and spun a rod bearing. Currently, the car has the original engine back in it, but there's something not quite right about it again, it burns oil and sounds like it has a rod knock. She needs another engine, and will get one eventually or a rebuild.

    How powerful is your carb'd 6-port? I've been thinking of switching to a carb setup but I'm afraid I'll lose a lot of driveability or maybe even some power, haha.

    Woah sorry I missed this post. The dellorto carb is one of the best carbs for these motors when jetted right. And it's got an enriching choke, which means it starts in ALL weather. As for power, it's guesstimated at around 160-170 to the flywheel. It's much quicker than a stock SE and it's faster than my old stock turbocharged second gen was. A lot of this is from the Racing beat header and straight pipe into the RB muffler too. The straight pipe was drilled and tapped to run a compression fitting mated to a copper tube that provides back pressure to open the 5th and 6th ports.
